All vehicles must have valid registration to operate on the highways of the Arizona. If you are eligible for IRP registration, but do not wish to obtain this type of interstate registration, you have the option of applying for full Arizona base plate registration and then stopping at each state's port of entry to purchase single trip permits as you travel through various states.

The Arizona fees include registration fee, vehicle license tax, commercial registration fee, weight fee, motor carrier fee, use fee and air quality diesel fee. In addition to these fees, you also pay the applicable registration fees due for each member jurisdiction in which you choose to travel.

If travel outside of Arizona prior to your IRP registration application being completed, you must purchase single trip permits for the states you wish to enter.

If you are not currently registered in Arizona, you can purchase single trip permits, which allow you to travel lawfully through Arizona. These permits are available at Arizona ports of entry or MVD Commercial Permits.

Keep in mind that you will be required to contact each state's permitting office or a permitting service agency to secure permits from each state you will enter.

You will no longer be required to report mileage if you are applying for a new IRP account. Registrants will pay fees for all jurisdictions based on the base jurisdiction's average per-vehicle distance in each jurisdiction. The system will automatically calculate based on the average per vehicle distance chart for each Jurisdiction and add all Participating Jurisdictions to your registration, which will allow you to travel in all Jurisdictions as needed.

The Full Reciprocity Plan (FRP) grants full reciprocity to all IRP member jurisdictions, removing from the Plan any provisions related to estimated distance. For more information visit, the IRP website.
